HILL AIR FORCE BASE, Utah -- The Air Force's first landfill gas generators went into operation in 2006 at Hill. The facility includes three generators and produces 2.3 megawatts of electricity per year. The Air Force's second landfill gas generation facility opened in 2013 at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, Alaska. It houses five generators and creates seven megawatts of electricity per year, the highest-producing single renewable energy project in the Air Force. Cases such as these where public landfills are close to a base are rare, so Air Force Civil Engineer Center engineers plan to investigate closed Air Force landfills to search for new opportunities.
